[Resolved] Fullscreen not working on Windows 8 Tablet

Hi,

I am trying to run BG:EE on a Lenovo ThinkPad 8, a 8 inch Windows Tablet. The tablet runs x64 Windows (4GB Ram) and has a display resolution of 1920x1200. I use 200% DPI Scaling on the Desktop.
The problem is that when I am starting the game, I only see roughly the left upper quarter of the game. I can't even go to the settings to turn fullscreen off. Since the game runs fine on my desktop PC I think that the problem is the 16:10 res or the 200% scaling. In general the scaling does not affect (x86) Fullscreen Apps (other Games don't have this problem), but perhaps this is the source here.
Through baldur.ini I can start the game in a window but I can't scroll in the main window, so it is unplayable. I hope that that would work in fullscreen.

Can somebody help?

    In the properties menu for baldur.exe, in the Compatibility tab, disable DPI scaling. That should fix the problem.
